Cryptocurrencies that are clearly tied with one person

[JaanusRaim]

Like OFFICIAL TRUMP (TRUMP) and Official Melania Meme (MELANIA).
Are there more of that kind of cryptocurrencies that are clearly tied with one famous (or not so famous) person and are created/authorized by that person?
Is there some specific name for such "personal cryptos"?

There are many of them but the ones I can remember are those that are created by celebrities that are singers. Even in my country there was one which the singer used to stole people's money just like those Americans singers. You can asked Google AI about it because this is not what I am interested in because they are all pump and dump.

Very interesting. Imagine that there will be a list of millions "personal cryptocurrencies" from all kind of different celebrities: sportsmen (prices before and after Olympic Games!), politicians (prices before and after elections!), young artists (prices before and after they get famous!) and so on and so on.


I am still looking for a proper keyword for them.

You will find dozens of them^[1], but Trump is the only exception, as many may want to buy TRUMP simply because he is the President of the United States, and its value will decrease greatly after Trump's presidential term ends, so there is no fundamental reason to buy these tokens.

Great thanks!

These to add more to your list of coins created by a celebrity or tied to the one person.

Andew Tate $DADDY

Ronaldinho $STAR10

Caitly Jenner $JENNER

Jason Derulo $JASON

Iggy Azalea $MOTHER

There will be many more, but it may be the list to be very long. I have seen even so many big boy who actively used X was also releasing their own meme. The fact that all of these celebrity memes are pure trash.

Official Trump increased for like 2 days after launch and it started to fall since that time. All-time high of the coin is $78 but it is now $2.89.

Melania all-time high is $45 but now $0.106
WLFI all-time high is $1 but now at $0.085

These coins will not get to all-time high. They are all not stores of value even when Trump is the president of the United States.

WLFI never reached 1$ as far as I know, did it?

Speaking of memecoins and TRUMP, look what he's up to in a couple of weeks:

You would think he'd be more concerned about attending the Bitcoin conference after all the promises he made.

WLFI all-time high on Coinmarketcap is $0.46 which was on September 01, 2025.
On Coingecko, the all-time high is $0.331336 which was on September 01, 2025.

I followed the price on Mexc that day, it started at $1 and started to fall. Also on September 01, 2025. That was the day and hour it wa launched.

A good coin will not cause this price difference if it is a good coin because it would rise above the launch price on all exchanges which would have solved this differences but it was falling on all exchanges immediately it was launched. Although, token like Trump increased above the launch price but it is still a shit coin.

There could be differences in Melania token also because it started to drop immediately it was launched. It is completely a shit token.

that's usually a bad idea.

there were a few coins tied to a single "visionary" dev (Cronje, Pacman to name a few).

all ended up poorly as they tend to just abandon projects and move onto other things so the coins simply head to 0.

btw, now it's hard to believe, but ETH used to be almost entirely tied to the persona of Vitalik. luckily the vision grew enough for him to become completely irrelevant to the project and the coin but that's an exception to the rule.
